Sunday's Sound Off

Sunday, November 17, 2013

When will Americans wise up? Virtually every failed city, town or state is run by big-spending Democrats. Now we are close to a failed country and still no one gets it. Democratic lawmakers are like termites eating away at their hosts until it is dead. How could we expect anything different with Obamacare?

INFO DEPOTBoy, doesn’t Obama make President Nixon look like a knight in shining armor? Oh boy.

I think it’s time for officials to start waking up to the fact that trouble is brewing in the borough of Pottstown. You can only push people so far. Certain ones are getting top salaries and yet we’re in bad economic times. How long can this go on before someone loses it? It’s time to clean up borough hall and have some respect. This was once a very nice place to live. Now some are ashamed to say they live in the borough.

TIME FOR CHANGEThank you Mercury for the Aldi’s ad. That store is great. The manager is excellent and all the people who work there. It is a very nice place to shop. Thank you again for the Aldi’s ad in Wednesday’s paper.

To the Proud Spring-Ford Resident, you must be proud the school board was voted in. You must be rich and love to throw money so I guess that’s why you are glad.

Montgomery County government has sold off Pennhurst, Kencrest and now Parkhouse, the Johnson Home. Every one of these places were prime real estate properties. How can we follow the money trail to see where these millions of dollars went or won’t they let us? Can somebody let me know how to follow these money trails?

CONCERNED TAXPAYER

Now that it’s getting cold outside I think as a parent I should be able to send a note to school and say I would like my child to stay inside during recess. If my child is at home and I feel it is too cold to send them outside to play, I should be able to keep them in school when they’re at school instead of going outside freezing in cold temperatures.

Kudos to Phoenixville borough. Now we are losing Family Dollar. Hopefully (sarcastically I’m say this) we can get a bar in that spot. Now we’re losing everything. Phoenixville’s going down the drain. I don’t even like living here anymore.

This is in regard to the recent submissions for chem trails. Educate yourself, go on the website called chem trail truth, and make your own decision.

ONE WHO KNOWSTo the person who said President Bush lied to go to war after 9/11 and President Obama lied about Obamacare to get votes, are you saying two wrongs make a right? True, civilians are being killed in the war but the civilians being killed now are part of Presient Obama’s war. No matter how you twist it, Obamacare is a myth. Even President Clinton has said that Obama should make changes to correct his lies and he backed Bush going to war.

“West Pottsgrove home invasion suspects plead not guilty,” that’s no different than Obama saying he didn’t know what was going on.

If you listen to Fox News long enough, it will make you feel that health care is the worst thing to ever happen in this country. They sound like a broken record. Someone should tell Fox News that the Affordable Care Act has been a law for four years. Move on to another pointless issue.

My cat Penny is missing. She was last seen about two weeks ago on the 300 block of North Evans by Jefferson St. She’s a white cat with a little gray in her, long hair and big yellow eyes. She needs medicine. If you see her, please call Debbie at 610-970-5648 or 484-949-0680.

Regarding the comment from the person who says every time they see a young girl at the store with three or four kids and they drive a big nice car they wonder if they’re on Welfare, stop stereotyping people. They can drive a big nice car and have cell phones, you probably have a cell phone, and maybe her husband does have a good job. It’s not everybody that’s on Welfare and Section 8. People do work for a living.

A POTTSTONIANI am calling about the Powder Puff’s football game that Owen J. Roberts had on Tuesday night. I feel it was unfair and I know some other parents were also disappointed that they had certain ones that played and some of the seniors never even played plus some of the freshmen didn’t play. It’s favoritism. At least they should have let the seniors play part of the game and some of them sat on the bench all night and it was their last game.
